DTC 43 Starter Signal Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the engine is being cranked, the intake air flow is slow, so fuel vaporization is poor. A rich mixture is there-
fore necessary in order to achieve good startability. While the engine is being cranked, the battery positive volt-
age is applied to terminal STA of the ECM. The starter signal is mainly used to increase the fuel injection volume
for the starting injection control and after±start injection control.

DTC 78 Fuel Pump Control Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The fuel pump speed is controlled at 2 steps (high speed, low speed) by the condition of the engine (starting,
light load, heavy load), when the engine starts (STA ON), the engine control module sends a Hi signal (battery
positive voltage) to the fuel pump ECU (FPC terminal).
The fuel pump ECU then outputs Hi voltage (battery positive voltage) to the fuel pump so that the fuel pump
operates at high speed.
After the engine starts, during idling or light loads, the engine control module outputs a Low signal (about 9 V)
to the fuel pump ECU, the fuel pump ECU outputs Low battery voltage (about 9 V) to the fuel pump and causes
the fuel pump to operate at low speed.
If the intake air volume increases (high engine load), the engine control module sends a Hi signal to the fuel
pump ECU and causes the fuel pump to operate at high speed.
DTC No.

Park Neutral Position Switch Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The park/neutral position switch goes on when the shift lever is in the N or P shift position. When it goes on the
terminal NSW of the ECM is grounded to body ground via the starter relay and theft deterrent ECU, thus the
terminal NSW voltage becomes 0 V. When the shift lever is in the D, 2, L or R position, the park/neutral position
switch goes off, so the voltage of ECM terminal NSW becomes positive battery voltage, the voltage of the ECM
internal power source.
If the shift lever is moved from the N position to the D position, this signal is used for air±fuel ratio correction
and for idle speed control (estimated control), etc.
When the park/neutral position switch is off, code º51º is output in the test mode diagnosis. (This is not abnor-
mal.)

ECM Power Source Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the ignition switch is turned on, battery volt-
age is applied to the terminal IGSW of the ECM,
and the main relay control circuit in the ECM sends
a signal to the terminal M±REL of the ECM, switch-
ing on the main relay. This signal causes current to
flow to the coil, closing the contacts of the main
relay and supplying power to the terminal + B of the
ECM.
If the ignition switch is turned off, the ECM contin-
ues to switch on the main relay for a maximum of
2 seconds for the initial setting of the IAC valve. EG±576
